Nether Largie standing stone
Date Added: 25th Sep 2014
Site Type: Standing Stone (Menhir)
Country: Scotland (Argyll)
Visited: Saw from a distance. My rating: Condition 4 Ambience 3 Access 4
Nether Largie standing stone submitted by caradoc68 on 18th Aug 2012. This standing stone is in the middle of a field, a short distance of the footpath. The farmer does not like you being there and might put a angry looking bull in the field to put visitors off. Cant find a lot written about this stone or why it seems to be leaning at 45 degrees and pointing to the southeast.
